The beaches of the isles of Faro, Barreta, Culatra, Armona and Tavira form a natural barrier to the Ocean. Behind are the dunes, sometimes just a narrow strip and sometimes wider and then come the labyrinth of lagoons and small sand islands and channels. At low tide other salty habitats are uncovered forming marches and salt marshes.

A wintering ground for many migratory birds. The Estuary has an enormous variety of natural habitats and biotopes that provide refuge, feeding or breeding areas for an infinite number of organisms.

    As we are a family mostly spread over the UK I booked the property for a family holiday for my birthday. We needed 5 bedrooms so the property met our requirements. We had a great time in Monte Gordo.

    A villa handy for the beach with five bedrooms. Unfortunately, the pool took two days to fill.

    Eleven of us stayed in this lovely villa for a week, including five grandchildren aged two to thirteen. Excellent facilities and only a ten minute walk to a lovely beach. The pool was well used and communication was easy.

    Although we understand that at night we should respect and be aware with music and noise during the day ( kids playing on the pool) is normal and the neighbor was complaining. The house of is great and perfect for us but this aspect was disturbing

    Initially a few minor complaints which were sorted out promptly and efficiently, Close to the beaches and a bakery /shop/bar 5 minutes walk. Lovely walk along the beach to Monte Gordo takes about 15 minutes. Edite Felix of Green Rounds was always available for longer trips. Great place and the Portuguese were very friendly.

    The booking process, communications with owner/manager (including perfect instructions for getting to the property and into the property), well-equiped kitchen, family area, very clean pool and pool area for informal extended family visiting/eating, bedrooms, and bathrooms all worked very well for us. The house (with its appliances, kitchen set-up, and bathrooms) and neighborhood are quite new and provide easy access to the beach, to grocery shopping, to the wonderful little town of Tavira, and to all of the other treasures of the Algarve including the must-see Cabo Sao Vicente. All in all, we (our adult children and all of our grandchildren) were able to comfortably celebrate our 50th anniversary in one of our favorite parts of the world.

    We had a great stay. We travelled as an extended family of 11 with children from 8-17 and everyone enjoyed it. The house was clean and spacious. Large and clean pool. Interaction with hosts was perfect with fast response to questions/requests. The area is relatively newly developed, but not overdeveloped - villas, not high-rise. There is a really nice bar with coffee, beer and snacks about 200 meters from the house. The bar also has a small shop that sell basic things including bread. The beach is also within walking distance and is beautiful. There is a nice seafood restaurant there. Recommended

    Thoroughly enjoyed our week at casa Brian, excellent villa for our extended family. Only four stars as the surrounding area was unfinished, a real shame.

    We were most impressed with the cleanliness of the villa. We had everything we could possibly need to enjoy a totally relaxing time in wonderful surroundings. Could not have wished for a better home from home. Thoroughly recommend this villa for 2 to 10 people, space for everyone. Roll on 2017
